Disclaimer: I'll take Tom Baker, David Tennant, and Matt Smith but that is the lowest I'll go!
Everyone stood up, a little dazed from the stop. Theta helped Allie up. "Come on, let's go." He grabbed her arm and dragged her behind him. She didn't really put up a fight, just followed him blindly.
They made their way to the ballroom doors, stepping over people as they went. Theta reached for the doors, once they were close enough, but a waitress stepped out in front of him.
"Excuse me, sir, but it would be best if you stayed in here. Captain's orders." She said with forced politeness.
"Well, me and my friend here just need to get something from our room's. We'll be right back." Theta reached around her and she grabbed his arm in a tight grip.
"No one is going anywhere." She said with a growl.
A low whirring suddenly filled the ship. The waitress looked up and smiled. "Look's like your ride is here."
She and everyone else faded away in a blinding white light.
Theta woke up to a horrible headache. He groaned and opened his eyes to find himself in a cell. This was starting to become a regular thing. He gingerly sat up and examined the room. It was dome shaped, and some kind of gray-brown color. There were small lights all along the bottom of the wall allowing some light into the room but not much. He reached up a hand to rub his eyes and found he couldn't lift them up past his shoulder. He looked down to find his hands chained to the floor. He tugged roughly on them but they stayed securely in place.
Suddenly a tall rectangular section of the wall on the other side of the room slid open revealing the dark silhouette of a woman against a bright light. Theta blinked against it as the woman came into the room, but instead of a clicking of shoes it sounded more like a...squishing sound. As his eyes adjusted to the light he saw why. The top half was a woman, with brown hair piled high on her head wearing a blue blazer and had green-yellow skin. The bottom half was that of a slug. A nauseating green-yellow color matching the top half's skin, about three feet long, and left behind a green slime the color of mucus. Theta swallowed back the bile rising in his throat.
"You are a young Time Lord." She said, her voice was like nails on a chalkboard. "But no doubt worth millions."
"What do you want from me?" Theta asked, trying to get as much out of her as possible. "And where are the other passengers?"
She laughed. A high pitched laugh that sent shivers down Theta's spine. "You do not know? Perhaps Time Lords are not as smart as everyone gives them credit for, or perhaps you are the idiot in the bunch."
Theta ignored the insult. "Your a Kinutuck. Your not even supposed to be on this side of the universe. What could possibly be in your interest here?"
"My interest is in the humans." The Kinutuck replied. "You see Time Lord, my planet is in a deep debt. One we can not get out of unless we have other means of getting money. These mindless, idiot humans, would be the perfect slaves. And many species would pay thousands for their own human slave."
"But why use the obliviscor?" Theta asked. "Why give them a potion that makes them forget everything?"
The Kinutuck glanced sharply at Theta. "You figured out the potion, maybe you are not as dumb as you appear." She moved closer to him and bent down towards his face, Theta flinched back slightly. "The only problem with humans is that they fight back. Especially kidnapped humans. They fight to get back to their friends, family, their loved ones. But if they do not remember they have any of those things, then they will not fight back. They will be mindless drones and work what they think they have been working for years. It is the perfect plan that cannot fail. And once we make you drink the potion, we can have you sold for millions. A human slave is one thing, but a Time Lord slave..." She trailed off and Theta could practically see the dollar signs in her eyes.
Theta thought of all those people who were at the party, all those people who will be sold into a horrible life and they wont be able to remember anything else. He thought of Allie, of the look she gave him when he called her name and how she couldn't remember him.
Theta leaned toward the Kinutuck. "It is a good plan...but that's not what is going to happen today." He said in a voice that scared even him. "What's going to happen is that you are going to let all of those people who were on the ship go, and then your going to let me go, and then you are going to go back to your planet like nothing ever happened."
The Kinutuck laughed. "Or what? You are not in any position to order me around, Time Lord." She moved towards the door.
"You're going to be sorry." He called after her. She looked back over at him and Theta saw a hint of fear flash in her eyes. And then she walked out of the door, letting it slide back behind her.
Fun Fact of the Chapter: Obliviscor means forgotten in Latin. Which is why I picked that for the name of the potion.
A/N: Sorry it took me a little while but I've been busy with school. Although it's pretty short I am very proud of this chapter. I think it turned out well if I do say so myself. And whoever can figure out what character/what movie they were in I based the Kinutuck off of they get a giant virtual cookie! And whoever reviews gets a normal size virtual cookie! So if you like virtual cookies or you just like this story...REVIEW!
